(click image to enlarge)When I first read the theme, I thought right away of our new kitten Stanley and how he keeps knocking things off shelves in the middle of the night and it wakes us up with a big crash! Even while I was working on this piece Stanely was wrecking havoc in my studio! He's a naughty kitten, but I love him so much it just makes me smile when he makes a mess!

Hi Claudine,What a cute collage! I love all the kitties playing and getting into mischief. This piece really touches me. Last summer one of my cats passed away (Godbless his little soul) and this reminds me of when he and my other two cats would "assist" me in the kitchen. You're right, no matter what they always make you smile!

oh, you drew kitties, too. they are cute. I used to have cats when I lived with my parents. Now they have three cats and my husband and I don't have any because I'm (all of a sudden?) allergic to cats. But cats can be so sweet even if they are so naughty sometimes.

She has an awful calm face for having just had some dishes broken...what planet would she be from (as someone who has witnessed such events that resulted in lots of screaming and threats...maybe it was because there were no cats involved but kids?)

there's so much I love about this style. Not just the use of retro photo's but the way the fine lining is not the strict boundary for the colour, giving that slightly offset appearence. the fact that everything is slightly disproportionate, yet still appears perfect. a very difficult style to pull off this well.

Who could ever be mad at cuteness like that? Cats seem to be born with the ability to give you that all-so-innocent look whenever it's needed. I love how the curtain/apron/towels pattern works so well for each.
